Chapter 682: The Sense Of Accomplishment And Satisfaction In The Hearts Of Civil And Military Minist
Looking at Ru Taisu's face changing at every turn, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but laugh.
Giving money and rewards to all the officials in the world may sound like a lot of money, but in fact it's just the same thing.
For example, in a county, there is only one magistrate of the seventh-grade county, one county magistrate of the eighth-grade county, and one chief registrar of the county of the ninth-grade county.
The total reward money required for these three is only fourteen strings.
Then a county has as few as one or two hundred subordinate officials, and as many as one or two thousand subordinate officials.
Each of these subordinate officials has a hundred coins, and the total reward money required is as little as ten or twenty coins, and as large as one hundred or two hundred coins.
There are very few counties with one or two thousand subordinate officials, so we can take a rough average.
For example, the reward money that needs to be paid to a subordinate official in a county is about 50 guan.
And the total number of officials and officials in a county is only about sixty-four.
The Ming Dynasty now has 1,024 counties, which means that for all the officials and officials in these local counties, the reward money required is only about 65,536 guan.
And the magistrate of a state is nothing more than an official of the fifth rank.
Other subordinate officials such as Zhizhou Tongzhi are from the sixth rank, judges are from the seventh rank, and officials are from the ninth rank.
The combined rewards required by all the officials and officials of a magistrate would not exceed a hundred guan.
Since the Ming Dynasty adjusted the local administrative levels of provinces, prefectures, prefectures, and counties in the past few years, the number of prefectures has increased from about 200 to about 400 prefectures now.
The total reward money required by the four hundred prefectures is only 40,000 guan, which is less than the reward money required by all the magistrates and counties combined.
And the official title of the prefect of a prefecture is only the fourth rank.
Other subordinate officials such as the magistrate Tongzhi is the fifth rank, the general judge is the sixth rank, the push official is the seventh rank, and the remaining officials are minor officials below the seventh rank.
The total reward required by all the officials and officials in a prefecture is about two hundred guan.
Since the Ming Dynasty adjusted the local administrative levels of provinces, prefectures, states, and counties in the past few years, the number of prefects was reduced from about two hundred to about one hundred.
In other words, when all the prefects were added together, the required reward of 17 coins was only 20,000 coins.
As for the remaining thirteen provinces, the total reward money required for all officials and officials will not exceed 10,000 yuan.
And all the civil and military officials in the court also did not spend much reward money.
The total reward money for the nine first-class dukes was only eighteen hundred guan.
The total reward money required for all the civil and military officials of the imperial court will not exceed 30,000 guan!
The total reward money required by all the officials and officials in the world will not exceed 200,000 yuan!!!
Two hundred thousand dollars is a lot less, but if you say it's a lot, it's just like that.
At least for Zhu Yuanzhang, taking out 200,000 yuan from the internal treasury was not a drop in the bucket, but it was definitely not a big sum of money.
Using both kindness and power, hitting a big stick, and giving his subordinates a sweet date, Zhu Yuanzhang was very easy to play when he rebelled.
It's just that since becoming the emperor, he rarely uses this kind of imperial technique.
But if you use it occasionally, the effect is still very good.
At least now after hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang said that he would give them money rewards from his own internal treasury, the civil and military officials suddenly felt that it was acceptable to work hard for Zhu Yuanzhang.
After all, it's not like they didn't know how stingy and stingy Zhu Yuanzhang was.
But now Zhu Yuanzhang is actually willing to spend his own money to reward them!!!
He really made me cry to death!!!
Well, this is the mentality of all civil and military officials now.
From this perspective, the dozens of civil and military officials under Zhu Yuanzhang’s KTV [CPU and ICU] were quite successful.
As the reward was confirmed, the mood of all the civil and military officials present became a little more relaxed and happy.
As the chamberlain followed Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, he took out the money from the inner treasury and distributed it to all the civil and military officials present on the spot.
The smiles on the faces of all the civil and military officials could not be concealed.
After all the civil and military officials put their reward money into their sleeves, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the servants on the side. Several servants immediately pushed a large blackboard half a foot high and three feet long to the lower third level of the Alchemy Palace. center of the steps.
All the civil and military officials here are also very familiar with this particularly large blackboard.
Because since the thirteenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang has asked all civil and military officials to work together to formulate a medium- and long-term development plan for the next five years of the Ming Dynasty.
The main theme is what is the current situation of Ming Dynasty in all aspects, and what situation will Ming Dynasty gradually develop into in the next five years.
The six departments of the court, as well as the military commanders and noble marquises, all have to formulate a rough outline plan based on the content they are responsible for.
Then such an outline plan would be presented to the imperial court for promotion.
After the proposal is approved, it will be written on this big blackboard (the Ming Dynasty's medium and long-term development plan for the next five years).
Then the six ministries of the court, as well as a group of military commanders and noble marquises, implemented the responsibilities step by step according to this [Ming Dynasty's mid- to long-term development plan for the next five years] and implemented it.
During the implementation process, if various departments or localities in the court encounter any problems that are difficult to solve and require cooperation from other departments, they will be raised at the court meeting.
If various departments can cooperate with each other, they will cooperate with each other.
If it is difficult to cooperate, then speak out about your difficulties.
Then a group of courtiers discussed and came up with one or several solutions, and then it was finally handed over to Zhu Yuanzhang for finalization.
And every month, the six ministries of the court and a group of military commanders and noble marquises must simultaneously update the implementation progress of the "Ming Dynasty's medium and long-term development plan for the next five years" that they are responsible for.
For example, on the big blackboard of [Da Ming’s Medium and Long-term Development Plan for the Next Five Years], there is information about the progress of the implementation of the ‘Da Ming First Five-Year Education Plan’:
In the first year, the thirteenth year of Hongwu, the imperial examination reform was carried out and the hundred-point system was introduced.
Among them, the "Four Books" and the "Five Classics" accounted for 50%, "Ce Wen" accounted for 30%, and "People's Livelihood Matters" accounted for 20%. Human begets scholars.
Behind this item, there is a check mark, indicating that it has been completed.
In the second and third years, that is, the fourteenth and fifteenth years of Hongwu, the county examination, state examination and government examination in the new imperial examination were restarted.
In this way, a large number of qualified scholars were selected from the scholars in the Book of Human World to prepare talent reserves for the subsequent education of local people.
Behind these two items, there is also a check mark to indicate that it has been completed.
For another example, on the big blackboard of [Da Ming’s Medium and Long-term Development Plan for the Next Five Years], there is also an overall check mark on the back of the ‘Da Ming’s First and Five-year Land and Acre Reform Plan’.
Originally, they planned to calculate the number of heavy taxes that should be exempted from the current royal family members, civil and military officials, and other Jinshi and scholars in the first year of Hongwu.
In the second year, that is, the fourteenth year of Hongwu, the preferential treatment policy of exemption from land tax for the royal family, civil and military officials, and scholars was abolished, and the preferential policy of land tax exemption was replaced by the corresponding reissue directly based on the number of acres of land under each person's name. Cash money that should be exempt from land tax.
From the third to the fifth year, that is, from the fifteenth year of Hongwu to the seventeenth year of Hongwu, the policy of dividing land into acres was completed, as well as the inventory, statistics, and verification of the number of acres of land in the world.
But to their own expectation, the work that was originally expected to take three years to complete turned out to be completed ahead of schedule in only one year.
In addition, there are other national government affairs plans such as the "Ming Dynasty's First Five-Year Plan for Resetting and Promoting Weights and Measures", the "Ming Dynasty's First Five-Year Invoice Reform Plan" and so on.
You can also see the progress of each of the ten links that have either been completed or have been collectively advanced on the big blackboard of [Da Ming’s Medium and Long-term Development Plan for the Next Five Years].
Zhu Yuanzhang would have people carry out this big blackboard [Ming Dynasty's medium and long-term development plan for the next five years] every month, and then ask the six ministers of the court and a group of military generals and noble marquises to update the progress on the spot.
I have to say that every time a group of civil and military officials look at the five-year plans recorded on the big blackboard of the "Ming Dynasty Medium and Long-term Development Plan for the Next Five Years".
Slowly but steadily moving towards a future they planned and expected that would be far better than the present.
There will always be an indescribable sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in their hearts!!!
They are transforming the entire Ming Dynasty bit by bit!!!
They are actually making the entire Ming Dynasty better!!!
This kind of clear change, this kind of change that the country and society are constantly improving, this kind of change that is vigorously developing in the world.
Sixty million people all over the world can see it, all the local officials can see it, and even more civil and military officials like them in the court can see it!!!
If we say that the prosperous times of other dynasties need to be evaluated by future generations and determine whether the dynasty they live in is ultimately a prosperous one.
Then they can say with certainty that they lived in the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no need to evaluate it later to determine whether it was a prosperous era.
Because they themselves can evaluate and determine whether the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty was a prosperous era!!!
As long as they continue to follow the [Ming Dynasty’s medium and long-term development plans for the next five years] they have formulated in the future, then the Hongwu Dynasty where they live will definitely be a prosperous era that will be remembered in history!!!
And it will be an unprecedented prosperous age that is expected to reach far beyond the Han and Tang dynasties!!!
As a group of people who jointly write the glorious chapter of Ming Dynasty's future prosperity, they have extremely strong confidence in this!!!
Just like the reason why all the civil and military officials have worked so hard in the past few years.
In addition to the work reward commission set by Zhu Yuanzhang, there is another very important reason, which is this unique sense of achievement and satisfaction.
After all, compared to those officials in the late Ming Dynasty who had no moral integrity and were only in office for money and power, and could even directly betray the country for money and power.
Nowadays, the officials in the early Ming Dynasty relatively speaking still have a certain character, a certain integrity, a certain ambition, and a certain spiritual pursuit.
If there is hope, they will still pursue the true sense of leaving a name in history, and they are willing to make their own efforts for this.
And now, the changes in all aspects of the Ming Dynasty are telling them that the future Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty will definitely be a prosperous era.
And as those who pushed the Ming Dynasty to continue to develop and enter the prosperous age, they will inevitably follow the Hongwu Dynasty in the future and leave their names in the history books!!!
And leaving a name in history can almost be said to be the highest spiritual pursuit of a civil servant in his life!!!
Therefore, under the dual stimulation of the work reward commission set by Zhu Yuanzhang and his name in history.
Only the civil and military officials in the court would go crazy and force themselves to become the king of internal scrolls among the kings of scrolls.
As the saying goes, what goes up is good, and what goes down is effective.
All the civil and military officials in the court are frantically involved in involution, so all the local officials, whether it is for their own career advancement or to cater to the preferences of their superiors
Anyway, they all started the mode of collective crazy involution.
And when the "Ming Dynasty's medium- and long-term development plan for the next five years" is correctly formulated, and there are all the civil and military officials from the court to the local officials, they are crazy about involution and working hard to promote and implement it.
However, in just a few years, the development speed of Ming Dynasty suddenly accelerated several times.
And as this state continues, Ming Dynasty will develop faster and faster until it hits a certain bottleneck.
This is part of the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately rewards all officials in the world today.
For Zhu Yuanzhang, even though he was corrupt, he still didn't look at it.
But compared with the situation of corrupt officials thirteen years ago in Hongwu, the number of corrupt officials now can be said to have been greatly reduced, even to one or two tenths of the original level.
Similarly, although not all officials are so involved, furious, and work desperately hard.
But compared with the work style and attitude of officials before the 13th year of Hongwu, most of the officials in Ming Dynasty today are the kind of people who are loyal to the country, do their best for the people, work hard, get crazy, and work hard. Style and work attitude.
This already made him feel quite satisfied!!!
This is the Ming official that Zhu Yuanzhang needs!!!
The most important thing is that he can also clearly and obviously feel the completely different changes and developments that Daming has made in various aspects in recent years.
To give an inappropriate example, compared to the Ming Dynasty in the 16th year of Hongwu's reign, the overall comprehensive national strength of the Ming Dynasty in the 13th year of Hongwu has increased by about 10%!
!
It doesn't sound like much, but if this 10% of the national strength is allocated separately.
So with just this 10% of the country's national strength, it can even compete with the Northern Yuan Dynasty, which was struggling to survive in northern Xinjiang.
It was also precisely because he felt the changes and development of the Ming Dynasty in the past few years that Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes on Yan Changqing also unconsciously became more and more respectful, "Really look at Yan Changqing with the eyes of Saint."
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang has not forgotten who is responsible for all the policies and reforms of the Ming Dynasty today.
